Music and Story Collaborations

I’m looking to collaborate with short story writers on a project I’ll be working on over the next few months.

I’m inviting writers to submit short stories, under 1000 words, about the future: any future, be that beyond climate crisis, when AI has finally impacted the world, after humans have evolved into something different, or any other possible future you can imagine.

I will be composing a piece of music specific to each story, filming myself telling the story, and then publish it to Facebook, Youtube, Instagram and various other social networks.

Here’s an example of what it could sound like. This is a speech from George Orwell’s 1984:

If you’re interested in writing a story, or you already have one that may be suitable, please do get in touch on this page. The current deadline for submissions is 17 February 2020.

I don’t want any rights in the story, just permission to use it for this project, and to be able to tell the story in live performance. I’d also like to translate the stories into Welsh and make Welsh versions of the videos.
